Sermon (Treasure Matters: "Making the Most of Money" Luke 16:10-13): The Gospels record a significant amount of Jesus' teaching on money.

Much of our culture is focused on getting and having enough. Worry about financial security continues to confront families in poverty and in wealth. In this sense, worry happens regardless of how much we have. Jesus offers us a way to be set free through generosity. If we can embrace generosity, it will have lasting effects on our lives.

In this week's episode, Jesus begins to open us up to the power of greed in our lives and how we might be set free.
